Enter the IP address of the camera in the IE browser address bar. Press the Return Key (ENTER). The WEB page of the camera will appear and prompt you to enter your user name and password for access. The default IP address is: The default User Name and Password is: admin 3

5 Chapter TWO - Device Configuration 2.1 live video After you have logged in correctly, the webpage will display as below. Move the mouse over the video window and double click the left mouse button, this will change the page into full screen mode for the video stream. Other camera settings are located in the panel on the left side as labeled. Clicking the right mouse button on the video window will open the Sensor configuration menu. 4

6 2.2 Device Information To the left side of the main video window is the Configuration Panel, most settings are located there. IP Address configuration, Audio Settings, Network Ports, User Name, Passwords, are some examples Device Info: The Device ID & Name is set in this tab, the Hardware & Software Versions are viewable. 5

7 2.3 Stream Configuration The Submenu listed on the left side labeled "Stream Configuration, enables you to configure the video stream settings for the camera. The screen below is an example seen when selecting this function: Each camera or video server can be configured for different video streams; each device has up to three different video streams. This let you set a high quality recording stream and a low bitrate stream for remote monitoring. Stream 1 & 2 are H.264, Stream 3 is MJPEG. Resolution is based on camera specifications such as 1, 2 or 5 MegaPixel, sub resolution levels can be selected, streams can be divided into:1920x1080/1280x960/1280x720/1600x1200/d1/cif/qcif, etc. Frame rate: PAL can be up to 25fps and NTSC up to 30fps I Frame interval: time interval between I frames divided into 1/2/3/ seconds. The default value 2 should be used. Bit Rate: CBR or VBR. CBR is constant bit rate, where the data is streamed at a constant value. VBR is a variable bit rate, where compression of the video data can change relative to the percent of motion in the video image of the scene. The stream size is relative to the quality setting below. Quality: Value 1-9 choose within quality. Higher quality values produce clearer images and larger data streams. 6
